ARMS Count Guard is ProWatch Solutions’ newest breakthrough in intelligent loss prevention. Built directly into the ARMS (Automated Retail Management System) platform, Count Guard leverages advanced video analytics, AI algorithms and ProWatch’s proprietary ARMS technology to bring unprecedented accuracy and accountability to micro market transactions.
ARMS Count Guard uses camera-based intelligence to identify and count items presented at the point of purchase. It then compares those items against the kiosk’s sales data to ensure that every product selected is properly rung up and paid for.
By validating transactions against the sales data, Count Guard helps eliminate missed scans, partial checkouts, and unintentional or intentional shrink.
This revolutionary feature transforms video from a passive monitoring tool into an active revenue-protection engine, giving operators confidence that what’s taken from the shelf is accurately captured at checkout.
ARMS Count Guard intelligent loss prevention technology was nominated for Automatic Merchandiser’s 2026 Readers’ Choice Awards, which recognize the Best New Products for Convenience Services in 2025.
